Ronaldo's Future at Madrid

Madrid's Florentino Perez should act fast, sports newspaper Marca and regularly published polls show that over 70 percent of Madrid fans agree Perez should renew Ronaldo’s deal as soon as possible. Once Ronaldo’s contract runs out, his future with Real Madrid is still questionable. Ronaldo fans, keep your fingers crossed!

MADRID (AP) — Pressure is building on Real Madrid to come to terms with Cristiano Ronaldo on a contract extension, a deal the Portugal forward has carefully avoided mentioning since negotiations broke down last summer.

The Spanish press has been sending near-daily messages to Madrid President Florentino Perez along the lines of: "Renew Cristiano Ronaldo's contract now."

Ronaldo's importance to Madrid was glaringly obvious on Saturday when, with him serving a one-game suspension, Jose Mourinho's team was held to a humiliating 0-0 draw by bottom club Osasuna.
